Chapter 187 When the Snowstorm Comes, the Mountains Do Not Move
Chapter 190 When the Snowstorm Comes, the Mountains Do Not Move
Seven days later, in the manor outside Songshanfang.
Qinghuan placed a lush grass under a rock for viewing the scenery, which seemed out of place with the withered yellow leaves around it.
Two huge night-shining pearls dot the space, complemented by fish and dragon pearls in the clear pool...
Even in the dead of night, this place seems exceptionally bright.
A crescent moon hangs high in the sky, and spirit fish swim through the clear pond, chasing a ray of light. A gentle breeze stirs the goose-yellow gauze, and the sound of the zither lingers like flowing water...
Under the cold moon, this place looks like a paradise on earth.
Shuyue and her aunt sat cross-legged on the martial arts field playing chess, while Qinghuan leaned quietly in her master's arms listening to music.
Hong Ning gently gathered her gauze sleeves, and her slender jade fingers brushed across the strings of the zither, plucking out the ripples of wind and moon.
……
She came to say goodbye, and also to invite Zhao Qing for the last time to go to the desert of Liguo to explore the ancient ruins with the disciples of the various sects in Yujing.
But Zhao Qing still chose to refuse.
At this moment, he gently stroked Qinghuan's shoulders and looked up at the starry sky.
Amidst the seventeen brilliant stars, a faint shadow of blood emanated from the air...
He didn't understand what this meant.
Maybe it was just the Blood Robe disciples' unique perception of the Blood Robe Tower, Qinghuan could also feel it.
But Zhao Qing had an intuition in his heart——
Miao Jian disappeared in Li Country. Qian Hongwei founded a sect in Li Country and established the Wanxiang Sect based on the remaining foundation of the Sixiang Sect.
Pei Jin then sold the entire Fufang and Futang to Liguo.
Faintly, Zhao Qing felt a hint of unusual aura.
The path of destiny is extremely mysterious. As the one who stirs up all the storms, Qingying has arrived in Li Country, so something is bound to happen there...
It was at this time that Hong Ning from Tianxiang Tower and Kong Yang from Cuiyuan Tower invited him to go to the desert!
Zhao Qing took a deep breath and then closed his eyes.
It seemed as if one could sense indescribable threads rising from the Danxia Sect, drawing everyone's thoughts into the desert.
Even if Hong Ning hadn't come... I might have gone to Liguo.
As early as four years ago, I had promised my aunt that I would take her to see the vast yellow sand and meet her mother.
But at this moment, Zhao Qing suddenly changed his mind.
I want to leave the country, but it is definitely not possible now.
At least wait until Shuyue and Qinghuan have both established their foundation, or until I become the blood son of Yongning Prefecture, and then arrange the itinerary depending on the situation.
As for now...
The right way is to spend your days practicing peacefully, enjoying the daily life, and earning spirit stones in Songshanfang.
The sound of the piano is faint in my ears, like a chant coming across mountains and rivers, or like wind and rain gently enveloping the mountains and forests.
The breeze plays with the water and the clouds move, and all is quiet and silent.
After an unknown amount of time, the woman in his arms closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Under the stone pavilion.
Hong Ning stood up, put away the spiritual zither in front of her, and whispered, "After three days of sleep, Qing Huan's spirit will be able to return to oneness."
Zhao Qing nodded slightly.
He handed Qing Huan to his aunt's arms, and then took out fifty mid-grade spirit stones and a spirit peach...
"Thank you for your help, fellow Daoist!"
Her beautiful red lemon eyes flickered, and she opened her red lips slightly, wanting to say something else, but when she noticed Zhao Qing's inexplicable alienation, she directly accepted the remuneration for Qu Shui Yunyou.
Finally, he whispered, "You're welcome."
"In that case, I will go to Qianyuan Palace. If you change your mind within a month, you can send me a message at any time."
Zhao Qing smiled and nodded, then walked down the green steps with her, saying, "If I wanted to go to Li Country, I would definitely send a message to you."
After a cup of tea, a graceful figure rose up on the wind and disappeared into the night outside Songshanfang.
Only a faint fragrance that belongs only to a woman with a natural fragrance remains.
Zhao Qing silently looked up at the night sky...
The path of spiritual practice is to face difficulties and obstacles head-on and move forward courageously.
But now... you guys just keep moving forward, I'm going to stop and take a rest, and spend time with my family and enjoy life.
Before he knew it, this little errand boy from the Danxia Sect had become a disciple of the Xueyi lineage.
The previous yearning for the immortal path has also quietly changed.
I just want to live a peaceful life here and don’t want to be involved in any more right or wrong.
At least……
Before reaching the Golden Core stage, the profits from Songshanfang and the income from alchemy were enough to support the entire family's cultivation needs...
A pretty figure slowly walked out of the house.
Wang Shuyue frowned slightly and whispered beside her husband, "Are you worried about something?"
What's on your mind?
Not really...
Zhao Qing smiled and looked back, then lifted his wife up and said, "I will play chess with you tonight. Let Xiaoyi give you some pointers."
Shuyue's bright eyes fluttered as she pecked his ear softly, laughing crisply, "Then I'll go prepare some midnight snacks. Go check on Qinghuan to see if his hands and feet are warm enough."
……
It was past midnight, and the lights were still on in Zhuangzi's backyard.
Gu Qinghuan was placed on the spacious bed by her aunt.
A thin rouge-colored blanket covered her delicate body and goose neck... The woman's phoenix eyes trembled slightly, and her breathing became light and slow, as if she was immersed in a beautiful dream.
Beside her, there was an apricot wood chessboard.
Shuyue was wearing half a piece of underwear and lying casually in front of the chessboard. Her slender and round legs were resting on the edge of the bed, and her two delicate little feet were swaying rhythmically.
She frowned slightly, slowly twisting the white piece in her hand, thinking about the situation on the board.
Zhao Qing was multitasking, watching the chessboard while flipping through the storybook in his hand... reading a story with Si He.
A silver spoon was handed to him and he subconsciously opened his mouth to eat.
When you take a bite of the delicate and soft glutinous rice balls, the unique sweetness of crystal honey fills your heart.
My aunt sat quietly by the bed, holding a jade bowl in her hand and gazing at the three people around her, her beautiful eyes filled with a warm satisfaction.
……
The startled wind blew away the sun, and the light flowed westward.
Time flies like an arrow, and half a year passes in a flash.
This year, there was a heavy snowfall in the county town.
Outside Songshanfang, there is an endless expanse of silver...
The cold wind howled, and the fir trees on both sides of the official road rustled, struggling to resist the chill of deep winter.
The new year is approaching.
Shuyue put on her aunt's brocade robe and stood quietly beside the stone pavilion, watching the fish swimming in the clear pond...
Because of the existence of the Fish Dragon Pearl, the pool of water in the front yard did not freeze, but the spiritual fish in it will still meet the end of its life.
A thoughtful look flashed across the woman's brows, and she gently raised her arm.
Within the Dantian, the condensed spiritual energy circulated throughout the body, stirring the lightning spiritual root...
An extremely dazzling purple electric light shone through the fingertips and poured into the clear pool.
……
The spirit fish was very plump and passed away very peacefully.
Shuyue enveloped it with spiritual energy and whispered to herself.
"Steam one, grill one, and make soup with the rest..."
She looked back at her aunt who was standing on a high place, and they smiled at each other.
This was the fifth year that the two of them had spent together, but this was the first time they had truly settled down and worked together to prepare ingredients and decorations.
Zhou Xiaoyi took light steps, melting all the ice and snow in the yard.
Then he and Shuyue cut the red paper together and waited for Qinghuan to write a couplet.
Originally, according to Shuyue's idea, her aunt's calligraphy was extremely exquisite, and it would be best for her to write it.
But Zhao Qing had a different opinion.
Although Qinghuan's calligraphy does not have any particularly sophisticated structure, it is graceful and restrained, without any hooks or pauses, and does not show any sharpness.
It is very consistent with the situation of their family, where they live a peaceful and peaceful life without being involved in grudges or disputes.
My aunt also strongly agrees with this.
But she also wrote a short poem and planned to ask craftsmen to carefully carve it next year and carve a screen wall to be placed in the martial arts field in the backyard.
After Meng's screen wall was demolished, she had been thinking about installing a new one in her home.
Now, I have finally taken the opportunity of celebrating the New Year to figure out a few words.
The fine and soft wolf hair brush was waved in her slender hands, ink marks danced on the straw paper, and ripples occasionally appeared in the stone inkstone.
With one stroke, it looks like a horse running free from its reins, soaring into the sky and leaving in a cloud of dust, or like a dragon flying into the sky, coming from nothingness and returning to the void... until the ink is completely removed, leaving the painting light and unrestrained.
"When the wind and snow come, the mountains remain motionless, the green steps and thatched cottages stand tall.
The osmanthus is fragrant, the moonlight is like water, and the sound of the zither and flute is like a thread.
Dark and distant, with a rustling sound, the black egrets can convey the sweet voice.
In Taiwei, phoenixes and cranes seek each other, they are all true lovers from the past.
—At the end of the Wushen year, I composed a song for you.
·
at the same time.
In the quiet room of the courtyard, the majestic blood and energy gradually converged and gathered in the heart meridians.
Zhao Qing slowly opened his enchanting blood-red eyes.
A panel flashed before my eyes...
[Burning Heart: A First Look at the Doorway and Entering the Hall (1/10)]
"call……"
He exhaled lightly, and the blood color in his eyes gradually spread. At first glance, one would think that this man was an evil demon who had fallen into madness.
During the past six months, he has already condensed and absorbed all the rare treasures needed for the foundation-building stage.
The energy and blood in the body has reached a level that the heart meridian can no longer bear. In the remaining days... one only needs to calmly nourish it with the Azure Dragon Blood Classic, condense spiritual power, focus spiritual consciousness, and complete the ninth level of foundation building.
And on the last day of the year of Wushen.
He finally comprehended one of the seven magical powers of the Blood Robe with his powerful blood energy.
Burning heart!
Between breaths, the Azure Dragon Blood Codex rapidly circulated throughout his body, driving the condensed spiritual power and blood to run through his meridians. Power that was difficult to see with the naked eye erupted from his heart meridians, clearing away all the dust from his body.
That stream of green dragon blood had been completely absorbed by the heart meridian. When the Burning Heart Divine Power was exerted, Zhao Qing's ears were filled with "bang bang" sounds, as if a heavenly thunder was brewing from his heart meridian.
The vast blood energy enveloped the entire manor, carrying with it an extremely vast spiritual power, which reduced his Thousand Days Dao Foundation by 30%.
Although he did not use his magical powers, Zhao Qing already had an understanding in his mind.
If there is a strong enemy at this moment, with just a thought, the powerful blood and spiritual power can directly penetrate the enemy's heart!
Spiritual power can be resisted with spells and talismans, but attacks from qi and blood... are difficult to stop.
At least, very few foundation-building cultivators practice the Qi and Blood method.
He closed his eyes slightly, silently assessing his previous state in his mind.
He was surprised to find that when the Heart Burning Technique was used, even a cultivator at the same Foundation Establishment Stage could not resist the impact of Qi and blood on his heart meridians!
It can be said that once the Burning Heart is used, and with the spiritual power of the Thousand Days Dao Foundation added to it, he can almost kill an ordinary person in the early stage of foundation building in an instant!
Not to mention the Soul-piercing Technique to influence his consciousness...
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Zhao Qing's lips.
But that’s nothing…
The more magical thing about the Heart Burning Technique is that when it is released, it can unleash its Qi and blood to attack and kill, while when it is restrained, it can strengthen the Dantian and the Niwan.
It is just like the blood refining method in the mortal world.
It can force spiritual power to become more condensed at the cost of consuming qi and blood.
But the Blood Robe lineage's Burning Heart ability...
With the exquisite protection of the Azure Dragon Blood Codex, the increase in spiritual power can even reach 50%!
If you are not afraid of damaging your heart and meridians, even a 70% increase can be easily achieved!
This is already extremely terrifying!
You should know that the ordinary blood refining method can only enhance the Dantian spiritual energy by less than 10%.
Even the secret technique of burning blood and life can only increase the power by 30% at most, which means killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred of your own.
The Heart Burning Technique relies on the vastness of blood and energy to manifest magical powers, and can easily increase the strength of spiritual power by several realms...
When one's Qi and blood are restrained, even if one encounters an enemy in the middle or late stages of foundation building, the opponent will have to think twice before deciding whether to take action.
At this moment, Zhao Qing truly experienced the horror of the twelfth floor of Yujing!
The Blood Robe lineage, with just one magical power, can raise the upper limit of a cultivator to such a level...
After he had mastered the Flowing Cloud Technique to perfection, the Sky Spear in his hand only increased his spiritual power by 30%.
Ordinary high-quality spiritual weapons not only increase spiritual energy less, but also require suitable secrets and spiritual roots.
"The Way of Blood Robe..."
Zhao Qing vaguely understood in his heart.
This blood-stained sect that preaches in Shanglou is probably the most powerful among all the sects in Yujing.
For no reason, a sentence popped up in his mind.
To defend, hide under the nine earths; to attack, move above the nine heavens!
If all the Blood Robe disciples were the same as me, stationed at Tianxia Commercial Building...
What a terrifying force this is.
Everyone usually does business and goes shopping in the market, but there is no weak person among them... Compared with Hongchen, every Blood Robe disciple has the strength to fight across borders.
What Si He said before... Even though Liu Zijing is only in the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm, if he meets a Nascent Soul cultivator, I'm afraid he can fight him for a few moves.
Zhao Qing didn’t quite believe it before, but now he understands - he was too conservative!
If Liu Zijing had comprehended more magical powers... after reaching the late stage of the Golden Core, let alone fighting a few moves, it might be possible for him to defeat the Nascent Soul.
A faint yin aura rippled in my mind.
Si He's whispers spread...
"It's similar to the method of burning blood and burning life, but with blood guiding the heart meridian, the damage to oneself is minimal... The Azure Dragon Blood Code is also an extremely profound technique."
"If you have the chance, bring me a drop of Azure Dragon blood."
With a drop of Azure Dragon's blood?
Zhao Qing nodded silently and kept it in mind.
Saying this...
I definitely can't do it right now, but if I could become the blood son of Yongning Prefecture...
"Why do you want the blood?"
Si He whispered, "Let's see if we can comprehend the seal of Shouyun Mountain."
Zhao Qing: ...
It takes hundreds of thousands of precious spirit stones to comprehend one style of Burning Heart. If one comprehends Nine Shining Heavens...how much contribution will be needed to make up for it?
I only heard the other party continue: "Xiaoyi plans to carve a shadow wall. Once it is completed, I will help you control the Tai'a Seal and enlighten the spirituality within it."
Enlighten the spirituality of the screen wall?
What is the use?
"It doesn't have much effect, it just allows it to absorb the incense and prayer power in the house, so it can be used as a stone to protect the house."
Zhao Qing: ...
He silently released his spiritual sense to examine the small work his aunt had just written, and was shocked to find that the little fox girl in his body might have awakened some special habit...
Why do you want to print a chapter when you see something good?
He pondered silently and said to himself, "Can I print one for the door of my house as well?"
"Can my Changkong gun print it once?"
"Actually, Qinghuan really likes that red elixir furnace. How about helping her enlighten it?"
Si He:......
"Once you get the Tai'a Seal's approval, you can play on your own."
